alien and beautiful-safe and deep


A friend for the little jelly?
Un ami pour la petite meduse?

Also, national geographic.

orange sea glass is so terribly rare

I'm not going to translate this.
A girl in my french class was telling us about how her uncle works at a research lab in antartica. He told her that he could get her a job (which are impossible to get) working in the kitchen and making the same in a year as a year or more of college tuition. Not to mention the fact that SHE WOULD BE LIVING IN MOTHERFUCKING ANTARTICA! She nixed the idea and is gonna go to school in california instead. Crazy.
Well, it was this little jelly that got me thinking about college and antartica and all that jazz. He was found in the icy antartic waters. I love jellyfish.
I actualy just got back from college visits in NYC. The tour guide at The New School was a really rad kid, a senior at Eugene Lang. He had spent a semester of sophmore year in the "Semester at Sea" program-where you literaly spend a semester on a boat and go all around the world, 13 countries in all. Hot damn. 68 or 108 days. At sea. Fuck yes. Sign me up.
The whole college thing is scary as hell. Maybe I'll just make cupcakes for the rest of my life. Or, better yet, I'll just turn into an antartic jellyfish and drift away.

the black hills, the bad lands, the calloused east

I want to go to the badlands.
Je veux aller aux mauvaises terres a traverser.
